Jonah Kirsten Sorrentino (born June 26, 1975), better known by his stage name KJ-52, is an American Christian rapper from Tampa, Florida.
==Name== The "KJ" part of his name refers to his old rap alias, "King J. Mac", a name which he later described in one of his podcasts as "horribly cheesy". "52", which is pronounced "five two", not "fifty-two", is a reference to the Biblical story of Jesus feeding the multitude with five loaves and two fish, which is also sung about in his song "Push Up" from The Yearbook and in the "KJ Five Two" on ''It's Pronounced Five Two.
